Law firms ranked by client reviews

Council housing work covers local authority housing matters, including securing or defending a council tenancy, challenging allocations or transfers, and addressing homelessness, disrepair, rent arrears and eviction under English housing law. A solicitor in this area gathers evidence, negotiates with the local council, drafts applications and representations, prepares possession or review documents, and represents clients in courts, tribunals and housing appeals. It often intersects with welfare benefits and homelessness strategies.

Where a solicitor protects your position

A missed deadline or a wrongful decision can mean losing or delaying a home, exposure to eviction, or inadequate housing remedies. A solicitor’s role includes safeguarding deadlines, ensuring enforcement of local-authority duties, presenting evidence to housing panels, and pursuing appropriate remedies under housing legislation to protect the client’s housing position.

We had Sue as our contact. Very professional and good communication despite a challenging chain. Pity other solicitors in chain were not up to Sue’s standard.

Shilpav Patel acted on my behalf for my Sale & Purchase and once again he didn't let me down. Always available to me to answer any of my questions and reassure me. I have no hesitation in recommending Shilpav and his Secretary Janet, absolute Stars both of them. Thank you.

Lauren Clay

Tagged solicitor Lauren Clay

After a negative experience with another local solicitors we didn't hold out much hope for anything better. Lauren and her team worked hard to get us to complete on time, taking constant phonecalls and emails from us. Pushing and rooting for us. Finally the experience we wanted from solicitors! Thank you
